A Great Picture




Emily and I went on a cultural tour this past weekend to a folk village in Nagan. There are 85 families that actually live in this village in a (relatively) traditional manner. We did see the occasional satellite dish, motorbike and air conditioning unit, but most other things were quite traditional.

This fellow here possesses one of Korea's "Intangible Cultural Assets" (everything is numbered and catalogued here) since he is really skilled at making things with straw. Notice also the skinship at work.
